There will be the 2 cases
1st case-if Xm>m
Then value of X will be 4/3
2nd case-if Xm
Then value of X will be 4/5
Then the product of these value become approximately equal to 1

Dear student 
The product of two values would be 4/3 * 4/5 
So, it would be = 16/15
The value is approximately equal to 1 . 
Hope this helps 
Good Luck
